1. I got removed from my clinical practice

   LEN-RN replied to danny411's topic in General Students

   Refusing to return because it would be a hostile environment - why did you feel it would be hostile? Being on Facebook during clinicals or on your cell phone is not allowed. Going to the department head of the facility And complaining is never an op...

2. Dr. Order for band aid?????

   LEN-RN replied to Shell5's topic in Wound

   If the bandaid was put on an open area, the area should have been measured and an order should have been written. Incident report? My opinion is document when you find a bandaid that is not found in the TAR. (as well as find out what is UNDER the ban...

3. Life as a Nurse

   LEN-RN replied to mushymash's topic in General Nursing

   Mushymash - thank you for your post. You described many of our days with exactness and humor. Keep up the good work and take bathroom breaks:). I don't think nursing is for everyone!!! I have worked with some that are able to take their lunch, bre...

4. Why Even go for your MA? Don't Understand...

   LEN-RN replied to skittlebear's topic in General Nursing

   I am NOT saying that this is the reason some people choose to be MAs - but if someone has a drunk driving charge, or an arrest record, or charges filed against them for whatever reason..... most Boards of Nursing will not let someone sit for the boar...

   LEN-RN replied to Ruby Vee's topic in General Nursing

   Ruby I am sitting in a patient room, its dark and only sound is an oxygen machine. I read your story and busted out laughing, got the giggles when I got to the part where he bit off the head of her littman. So funny. Loved it. Not sure that the gig...

6. CNA to LPN to BSN to MSN , Whew!

   LEN-RN replied to MedNurse2k's topic in LPN-RN

   I think most nursing programs require nursing aide class before admission. I don't think you have to be certified but do need the class. I went the quickest route, there was a wait list for the asn program, so I chose to go for my LPN...I ended up c...

7. Becoming a nurse for the money...

   LEN-RN replied to Marc86's topic in General Students

   So its okay that someone can voice their opinion about nurses like she does, when she is not even a student? That kind of negativity isnt needed here. Not only is it not true, its innapropriate. Its apparent that there is some bitterness there. Oh...

9. Becoming a nurse for the money...

   LEN-RN replied to Marc86's topic in General Students

   I read other posts from her, she is not even a student, in June 09 she says she was accepted in to a program in the fall of 09, but advising others to NOT go into nursing. Last year (early 2008)she was steering others away from a certain nursing scho...

    LEN-RN replied to Ng74's topic in NCLEX

    Believe it or not MOST nursing students dont know about this website, have you ever looked at how many members there are?? Its only by word of mouth. Or when someone fails, they go online looking for support and find allnurses. So if you are seeing s...

12. Becoming a nurse for the money...

    LEN-RN replied to Marc86's topic in General Students

    Vanillavirtue, I must have missed the post that said nurses were looking for respect or wanting to marry doctors. Nurses marry doctors, and doctors marry nurses. Attorneys marry secretaries or lawclerks and vice versa. It depends on the person, not ...

    LEN-RN replied to Marc86's topic in General Students

    The cost of living in CA is outrageous. So when you consider that in, its really not "lot more."

14. Health Care: The Ticking Time Bomb

    LEN-RN replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

    I learned long ago to never say never. I am sure many of newly unemployed upper middle class would agree. No one knows what the future holds. No one.

15. Soooo many questions!

    LEN-RN replied to Kyle_'s topic in Career Support

    Nursing has been good to me. Yes the money is good for now, as not really sure what direction the possible healthcare reform is going to take us. RNs can have an associate degree, bachelor degree, or masters. I know several young people who graduated...
